Local Author Touts New Business Book: The Human Side, by John A. Passante

Barrington Books will host Barrington-based author and business executive John A. Passante on Saturday, November 30th from 1-3pm. Mr. Passante's new book "The Human Side, High-Touch Leadership in a High-Tech World" challenges readers to look at the human side of leadership, in light of the unprecedented information age, where technology can sometimes isolate employees from personal contact with their leaders. 

In easy-to-read chapters, he teaches leaders how to communicate better with their employees, and looks at the vital role that leaders play in cultivating tomorrow's leaders. The book also addresses the essence of character for leaders and how leaders set the tone at the top in the culture that emerges at their companies. The book not only serves as a primer for future leaders entering the workforce, but also provides inspiration to seasoned executives to hone their skills and improve their leadership quotient.
